Xiaomi 14 SE is allegedly coming to India in June
The Xiaomi 14, Xiaomi 14 Pro, and Xiaomi 14 Ultra will soon get a new sibling in the series if a new leak from a usually reliable source is to be believed. The fourth member of the family is said to be the Xiaomi 14 SE, a model which is expected to launch in India in June.
It will be priced under INR 50,000 ($599 or â¬560 at the current exchange rates). Unfortunately, the source of this information hasn't revealed any of the phone's specs, so it's unclear exactly what you'll be getting for that sort of money.
He alleges the 14 SE could be a rebranded Civi 4 Pro, which was recently launched in China with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, but keep in mind this sounds like mere speculation on his part, not actually leaked information.
Still, if it does turn out to be a Civi 4 Pro under a different name (and it definitely wouldn't be out of character for Xiaomi to play the rebranding game), then expect the 14 SE to feature a 6.55-inch 1236x2750 120 Hz AMOLED touchscreen with 3,000-nit peak brightness, 12/16GB of RAM, 256/512GB of storage, a triple rear camera system (50 MP main with OIS, 12 MP ultrawide, 50 MP 2x telephoto), a dual front-facing camera system (32 MP main, 32 MP ultrawide), and a 4,700 mAh battery with support for 67W wired charging.
It should run Android 14 with HyperOS 1.0 on top of course. From the specs, it's unclear what the idea is here and who this device is for. Maybe Xiaomi misses the "Lite" models from yesteryear and the Xiaomi 14 SE is that kind of handset, with lesser specs but still benefitting from being perceived as being part of the flagship family.
